Detailed explanation-1: -The Allied Powers were victorious over the Axis Powers in World War II. The Axis Powers included the United States, Great Britain, France, the Soviet Union, and China. France was not one of the allies during its occupation by Germany between 1940 and 1944. Russia was part of the Soviet Union during World War 2.
Detailed explanation-2: -The first of the Axis powers to capitulate was Italy. Following the Allied victories in north Africa (1942), southern Italy was invaded by British and American troops. This invasion began in Sicily in June, 1943. A civil war broke out and Italy surrendered on September 3rd, 1943.
Detailed explanation-3: -No. Germany was the only major industrial power-and outmatched in quantity by the British Empire, the US and the Soviet Union-and matched technologically by the British and the US. It could not compete in manpower (it was short of manpower from 138 on-too few to both maintain output and fill the military).
Detailed explanation-4: -September 1939 – Germany invaded and occupied Poland. April/May 1940 – Germany invaded and occupied Denmark and Norway. 10th May 1940 – Hitler launched a Blitzkrieg against Holland and Belgium. More items
